Christian Nahas

Christian is a Lebanese artist who left Lebanon in 2006 shortly after his graduation from the Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts-ALBA. Ever since, he has been fascinated by the 1950s golden age of his home country. He tries to replicate this era in his work thus trying to improve the western view of the Middle Eastern and Lebanese culture. His work is mainly calligraphic and depicts Lebanese popular expressions showing that Lebanon is truly a cultural crossroad between the East and the West. His work is also influenced by his significant multi-national career in advertising.
